Bumping this one up again. Okay, so this place has been open for just over a year now. When it open, there were lots of mixed reviews. Has anyone been back recently? If so, what was your experience? Tried going this past winter and wasn't able to get in, as their "wine guy/manager" said the wait would be about two hours. Just wondering if it would be worth trying again? Cheers

Kitsilano Wine Cellar on 4th Ave (between Yew and Vine) sells both of the Gewurtraminers. My husband and I are both big fans of Gewurtraminer, and although we enjoyed the wine, we were not overly impressed with either of them.

Gotham's has a private dining room... if that's your style. In the summer I went to a private party at Circolo--very nice. It has two private dining rooms, including one that has its own private kitchen.

I am so happy to hear where the Taka staff has moved to. The day that my husband and I walked by and saw the "closed" sign at Taka was a sad day indeed. I concur about Wabi Sabi--great sushi in a nice location. The night we were there we had wonderful service. Have been to Tojo's and was not overly impressed. Ah, but I now know the secret...buy Tojo a beer!!
